Cis-acting lnc-eRNA SEELA1/2 in leukemia progression
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Long non-coding enhancer RNAs (lnc-eRNAs) are a subset of stable eRNAs identified from the annotated lncRNAs. They might serve as enhancer activity-related therapeutic targets in cancer; however, the epigenetic activation mechanisms and the function of lnc-eRNAs in cancer initiation and progression remain largely unknown.Here, by genome-wide screening we firstly identified a set of lncRNAs as lnc-eRNAs according to the epigenetic signatures of enhancers.To demonstrate the functional roles of lnc-eRNAs, two newly identified lnc-eRNAs, SEELA1 and SEELA2, were chosen for further studies.Further studies showed that SEELA1/2-SERINC2 axis regulated cancer metabolism, such as sphingolipid synthesis, to affect the leukemia progression.
